The Day of Love!!

Mark has never been one for Valentines day!

"I Tell you Everyday I love you So Why do I need to show you today" Mark Says every year. So some years I will get him something If I think of it...

I was working Valentines morning so when anyone asked what I got today I gave a little laugh and said nothing. So when I finished work at 2 I went home had lunch and carried on like any other day. I even dropped the 2 girls off at Nans and went food shopping with Mark and Harry.

As We headed home Mark said we had forgot bread, so I dropped him off at the shop and went to pick up the girls. got home had dinner and then the bed routine and sat down to watch the telly.

Mark came in from the kitchen with a big tray of Ferrero Rocher (My Fave) a bottle of wine and a film. "Well" He said "It is our 10th wedding anniversary this year!!!!!"" Bless him

So we had a nice quiet night with wine, chocs and a film...the film was Taken not the most romantic film but a good one non the less.

I LOVE MY HUBBY!!!!

Woke up this morning to this!!!!

It Must have been about 3 inches thick, Cannot remember the last time we had snow that thick. The schools were closed so SNOW DAY for the kids

Sarah Loved it! She was still wanting to play long after Charlotte and Harry came in because they were cold. When I did finally decide she really should come in she Started screaming and kicking, She had a good tantrum.....As I say all fun and games.

It could have been worse! It could have been a knock at the door.

Where has the time gone, so much has happened. every time I sit down to write something something else is happening.

Let's start with this week...

I was busy at home sorting out kids and getting dinner ready when the phone rang a strange voice is on the other end Said

" Hello My name is... I am with your Husband he has just been knocked off his bike.... He is OK they are just getting him ready to put in the ambulance...

My heart sank, but just for a moment not that i did not care I just went in to auto pilot.

Right Kids- get them to Nan

Car put in some petrol

And get there safely



While I was getting ready the phone went again. As soon as I heard the voice I knew Marks Best friend had driven by the accident..She told me he was OK and was being put in the Ambulance. so with a little more reassurance auto kicked in a bit more.



So I got the kids ready and with out telling them Why I shipped them off to Nan. I saw now point in worrying them at this stage.

Filled up the car with petrol and started the 30 min drive to Huntingdon, It seemed to take forever but knew not to rush because I would probably end up in a bed next to him.

traffic was horrendous around the Hospital so Parked near the Park and walked down to A&E. When I entered A&E the receptionist said hang on a sec, and there i stood quite patiently and then asked how could she help. so I told her and she took me straight through

And there he was Sitting up in bed and when he smiled I knew he was OK..He was Checked over and was free to go. He told be that he had stopped at the roundabout, was about to pull off when the next thing he knew he heard a bang and as staring at the stars. A car had hit him from behind sending him off his motorbike, How she missed him I will never know he had a big day glow yellow coat on, it was this, the bike jacket and fleece and bike trousers and jeans that helped pad him out. I don't think he will ever complain about putting on all his gear again.



This all came about after Marks Mum lost her battle with Cancer. It has been over a month now but it has gone quite quick. She had been battling cancer for about 4 years. but was starting to find it very difficult to do very basic thing so on her last hospital appointment they recommended that she went in to Thorpe hall for some rest bite for her and for Family who had been helping her. She was not in there a week when she passed away in her sleep with Mark by her side. She will be sorely missed.

This hit Mark very hard especially when a week after she passed away Sarah began to walk. He was so upset he could not just pick up the phone to tell her or to go round and show her.

The funeral was very pleasant and Charlotte and her cousin had written poems to be read out. Her cousins poem was one that had been published with poems from school children in the county

Not sure what else has gone on these last couple of months have been a bit of a blur. Charlotte is getting on well in Rainbows. I have not even put this down that she had joined.
Charlotte Joined Rainbows at the beginning of the school year. It has been going about 21 years now. It is the one before Brownies the girls go until they are 7. They meet once a week and do lots of things. It is girls only so they have a nice environment without boys interfering. will have to write more later. Hope fully now with Christmas nearly upon us i should have some good blogs to write.

How bad Am I

I sat Down today to write about My little baby turning one and the fact that she has been in the wars a little but I was on Facebook and found out a friend of a friend has been to see NKOTB reunion in America !!!!!! How cool. Straight away I was on ticket master to see if they were coming here and they are, They are Coming in the new year, I was so excited can you guess what I asked Mark for, for Christmas lol. It defiantly brought back some memories, My first ever concert, Screaming..The noise I still remember the noise and girls fainting.

So Here's to Danny Donnie Joe Jon and Jordan
and Sarah's Birthday will follow shortly

Ohhh How time flies!!!!

Just a little note to say how depressed I am feeling. Harry only turned 3 in June and has only been going to Nursery for about 3 weeks now, but I Picked him up at the end of the week and was handed his School registration pack.

It only seams like yesterday Charlotte started school and she has just started back in her 2nd year. Charlotte was 5 When she Started were as Harry will only have just turned 4

I know in the back of my mind that he does not start until next September but once Christmas is out of the way all the letters will start and then next thing I know it will be summer holidays again and Charlotte would have finished another year and Harry will have his school visits to look forward too!
